Super friendly staff, only 15 mins late to gilli t. Deeply regret taking gili gili back .. gili getaway was well worth the extra cost

The travel was ok. Boat left in late and arrived late. In the pier it was the caos. There’s not people to help you to take your luggages. The trip was nice

The boat is hot, a/c doesn’t work, and doesn’t leave on time. But you are not in Europe or America and ticket costs basically nothing so just accept it as part of the experience of travelling and relax!

Not a customer centric experience. Boat was late, little announcements, chaotic with luggage and passengers using one loading area, hot and crowded seating are, WiFi doesn't work

We were really scared of the harbour because of all the scammer at Padang Bai, because we had a really really bad and rude experience last year arriving there. But the trip going from Padang Bai was well organised. The Golden Queen had A/C and it was in time. It smelled a little to much like petrol. But all in all a hood trip to Gili T.

Unfortunately not the best experience. We left more than one hour late (but that's very much something to expect given the dependency on sea conditions), but i especially didn't like the boat, which was pretty old and didn't feel the safest on choppy sea.

Ship was 2 hours late. We were left with No information.

The ferry departed 40 minutes delayed. But that’s an organization problem they told us, because there are many ferries that depart at the same time but there is not enough space at the harbour for all boats. The boat ride was smooth, the seats were comfy and most of the time the aircon worked. The first stop was Gili Trawangan, after that gili air and the last stop was lombok. The boat ride took in total 2,5h instead of 1:45 plus the 40 minutes delayed departure. All in all it’s one of the better ferries I think.
